    IL TURISTA (THE TOURIST)

    Book ID/图书代码: 11600016B94850

    English Summary/英文概要: The acknowledged master of European Noir Massimo Carlotto launches with Rizzoli his first thriller that is also the first of a new enthralling series featuring a new out of ordinary character: detective Pietro Sambo.

    “Massimo Carlotto’s Italy is a different world entirely, a dangerous setting for serious crimes committed by cruel men.” – The New York Times

    “The wonder boy of European crime fiction.” – The New Yorker

    "Beneath the conventions of Continental noir is a remarkable study of corruption and redemption in a world where revenge is best served ice-cold." Kirkus (starred review) on Death’s Dark Abyss

    The Tourist is a perfect serial killer unlike any other. First of all, he does not leave his "signature" on his victims and does not challenge and taunt the detective, because getting caught is the last thing he wants. He is a magician of camouflage, his murders are all different from one another and he never hits twice in the same city or country: this is what won him the pseudonym The Tourist. To boot, he is incapable of feeling empathy, remorse or fear and exerts total control over his own psyche. In other words he is uncatchable, the worst nightmare of all police forces across Europe. Even the coldest of killers sooner or later make a wrong move that gets them caught. It all takes place in Venice - the ideal hunting territory for any murderer - and the cage is not a prison, it is a far more dangerous trap, laid by someone who has seen in him the most lethal opportunity. Pietro Sambo also made a mistake, one that he paid dearly for. The former head of the Homicide Unit, he now lives on the edge, with a broken heart. Then the right opportunity arises, to regain his honor and dignity. However, catching the Tourist will mean violating the rules once more, risking much more than just his reputation.
